Like everyone who wakes up from a big dream, when he saw Xu in front of him, Lu Baiyan was still a little confused.

"Xu Shi?"

His squinting eyes widened a little, and he muttered softly.

Immediately seeing the various tubes inserted in his body, he subconsciously struggled again, "This is?" ”

"Are you awake?"

Xu Shi smiled and said, "I'm sorry, we didn't survive the Holy See's war, this is heaven." ”

Although he didn't know if there was a saying about heaven in the culture of the Hualan Empire, he still chose to make fun of it with such a statement.

“…… Brother Xu, don't tease me. ”

Lu Baiyan was stunned, and then smiled, "This kind of joke can't fool me." ”

He hadn't forgotten what happened before, and he also had his own estimate of who would win and who would lose, and he would definitely not believe that Xu Shi would lose.

It's very likely that he died, as for Xu Shi...... Unlikely.

Now that Xu Shi is still alive, of course he is definitely not dead.

The main thing is a logical clarity.

"Hey, it's boring."

Seeing his calm face, Xu Shi shook his head in disgust.

How did it come to you so normal? He hasn't had time to say the classic opening sentence of "The operation was successful" yet, and you are not like Xu Ying, who woke up and grabbed your buddy and called Dad......

Boring!

But he was also thinking, when everyone was abnormal, Lu Baiyan was so normal, so was this normal or abnormal?

Lu Baiyan came back to his senses very quickly, and cut straight to the topic single-handedly.

"I'm still a little confused in my head...... What really happened that day? ”

Xu Shi didn't hide it from him, and told him in detail about what happened after he was puppetized on the day of the final battle, including the various changes that have taken place in the Hualan Empire.

Listening to him tell him word by word, the expression on his squinting face is also quite rich.

Obviously, he didn't expect that everything around him had changed so much during the time he was in a coma - he knew that Xu Shi would definitely implement various reforms, but there was much more to it than he thought.

"Brother Xu's methods are indeed clever, and he can force the Holy See to jump over the wall in a hurry."

However, in the end, he only mocked the fate of the Holy See, "Even people like me have to be pushed out to the battlefield...... Ha ha. ”

Indeed, he was not a combatant, how long could he carry it under the circumstances?

But where did the holy lady at that time take care of so much, if it was a person, it would be piled up, and one more person was better than one less.

No one would laugh at such a thing as being forcibly puppeted, and it was obvious that the anger in his tone could be heard.

"That can't be helped, who made you a member of the Holy See?"

His response was very indifferent, "It is your job to dedicate your heart to the Holy See, don't complain." ”

“…… Again, I'm to blame. ”

Lu Baiyan could hear his voice, and he could only smile bitterly at this.

He was different from the other Templars, the others were either like Qin Yiyan because of their deep-rooted beliefs, or they were grassroots like Luo Yu, and they couldn't get out of it if they joined the Knights.

But Lu Baiyan is different, his family still has some power in the Hualan Empire, and he was sent to be this Rausch Templar just to bet on both sides, and the family also has many important members in the royal family.

In addition, he himself is not an unassertive person, so this position may be more like clocking in to work for him.

In short, he didn't have much faith in the Holy See, which is why he was so tempted when he was wooed by Xu Shi before.

But he only stayed at the level of motivation, and in the end he failed to take that step.

As for why, it's a bit hard to say...... It can be said that the perennial cultivation of the family has allowed him to develop the character of seeing the results and then making decisions.

Therefore, even if he was tempted, Pan Ling had a good chat with him, but he couldn't take this step in the end.

It always takes a lot of courage to step out of your comfort zone, but unfortunately, he doesn't seem to have the courage.

Or rather, it was too late when he really wanted to take this step - under Han Jingchuan's surveillance, he was coerced to go to the Holy See, and meeting Xu Shi again was already an endless battlefield.

"I'm sorry."

He suddenly felt a little guilty in his heart, he always felt that Xu Shi was so honest with him, and now he saved his life, but he was always ambiguous, and he was really ashamed of himself in comparison.

"What is there to be sorry for? I can understand that. ”

Xu Shi smiled and signaled that he didn't have to say such a thing.

The understanding is really understandable, in fact, the person who is very similar to Lu Baiyan is probably the Qi Maoyang of the "imaginary number", or the father and son of the Qi family.

Those two are also wavering masters, when they started the war with Shen He, they also stuck on the last point to take down the "shark tooth" He family, and if they say it, it is really a remedy.

It seems that their approach is completely different from Lu Baiyan's, but if you think about it carefully, their positions are also different - the "imaginary number" is a neutral independent individual, while Lu Baiyan is a member of the Holy See, and the people on the platform say that he is even an enemy.

Therefore, it is not surprising that he did not get rid of the Holy See and join him.

Boss Xu behaved so generously, which made Lu Baiyan a little surprised.

Qin Yiyan, who was eavesdropping outside the door, was also surprised, and it seemed that Xu Shi was really tolerant of them, the Holy See's fermented bean curd—it can be said that being tolerant of himself can be said to be pretentious, but it is not like this to anyone.

Is he so good at talking? It doesn't feel like it......

When Xu Shi was in the Holy See, the picture of fighting Confucianism in public is still vivid, you say that he is an elegant and easy-going person, who believes it?

Well......

I just talked to Pan Ling for a long time, and the red-haired stupid girl is planning to put aside her prejudices and take a closer look at this annoying guy.

And the other party's current approach did make her a little shaken - this person really seems to be different from what she imagined?

Lu Baiyan was even more grateful, and stretched out his weak hand to shake Boss Xu.

However.

Xu Shi did not do what he wanted, but opened it up.

“？”

Lu Baiyan was dumbfounded, and his right hand hung in the air and froze.

"I understand that's my business, but I didn't say I wanted to shake hands with you, did I?"

Xu Shi's tone froze, "I gave you a chance, even more than once, but you didn't accept it." ”

"Now I have seen the fall of the Holy See that I have made up my mind...... Sorry, that's a different price. ”

“…… Also. ”

Lu Baiyan paused, and then laughed self-deprecatingly, "Then what does Brother Xu want to do?" Do you want to give your majesty the power of my life? ”

This is not a yin and yang weirdness, but an ending that he subconsciously thought of.

After all, he has experienced too many such things, and the Holy See will do this when he arrests people, and Cheng Gujian will do it when he purge political enemies, which can be regarded as the simplest and most crude method.

Find a surviving high-ranking figure of the Holy See to behead the public, shocking people's hearts and stabilizing the current royal position.

"It's not like no one has suggested that."

Xu Shile was happy, and immediately picked up a few letters from his hand, "I don't know how the news of your death spread, so far, many people in the court have been on the music, hoping to use your head to kill a hundred people." ”

"Do you want to see it?"

After all, without waiting for Lu Baiyan to refuse, he showed it to the other party.

Lu Baiyan suffered respiratory arrest.

Because the authors of these twists and turns are all members of their Lu clan.

It's reasonable to think about it, the nobles' homes are often burned together with hot pots and cold stoves, and the fall of the Holy See does not mean that the Lu family is finished, and those who are loyal to the royal family will naturally not be affected.

And he naturally became an outcast - these people are afraid that they would like him to die, so that they can show loyalty to Her Majesty the Empress, and say that it is righteous to kill relatives.

"Good advice."

Squinting and having mixed feelings in his heart, he finally gave such an evaluation.

"Do you think too?"

Xu Shi took it back and said unhurriedly, "But I have a problem, I don't like to accept other people's suggestions." ”

"And you might as well think about it, if I really want to kill you, why should I save you?"

"And what do you mean?"

Lu Baiyan was a little dizzy, listening to the other party's meaning, it seemed that he wanted to protect himself? But he didn't seem to mean it that way before, ......

"I mean, you're still of some use to me, it's not worth dying here."

Xu Shi said lightly, "So I can give you a chance to atone for your sins, it depends on whether you want it or not." ”

Qin Yiyan, who was outside the door, frowned when he heard this, and he always felt that there was something wrong with this......

Yes!

One thing to say, Lu Baiyan was originally a member of the Holy See, not to mention the success or defeat of the king for the time being, there seems to be nothing wrong with what he did before...... Instead, his eyes squinted and swayed between the Holy See and Xu Shi, it was our Holy See who should be angry, right?

How did you say a few words, and he became a guy who was obsessed and didn't know the hearts of good people?

Even the word "atonement" is put on the whole, is this word not appropriate at all?

What she didn't know was that Xu Shi wouldn't think so.

Boss Xu takes a fancy to it, regardless of whether it is a person or a thing, you must get it, and if you are given a chance, it is your fault.

As for whether he became a traitor, fame and honor, that was not something he considered.

However, Lu Baiyan didn't seem to realize this, and when he heard Xu Shi say this, he nodded almost without much thought, "I've already missed Brother Xu twice, and if I push it again, I really don't know what to do." ”

Thanks to the red-haired silly girl who doesn't have any weird hobbies, otherwise I don't know how much reverie this sentence will cause.

"That's consent?"

Xu Shi bowed slightly, "Okay, let's make it clear, I need your ability to help me with my next plans, recuperate, and we'll start when you're healed." ”

"What's the plan?"

"You'll know when the time comes."

“…… Good. ”

Lu Baiyan didn't refute, although Xu Shi's stiff tone made him uncomfortable, but now he had no reason to refuse.

Qin Yiyan completely reacted, Xu Shi is such a high means!

It always feels like he came to Lu Baiyan from the beginning, right? In contrast, he and His Highness the Holy Maiden were the same as gifts, or they were on the list he wanted to purge, but because the situation had changed, he stayed.

Then, if Lu Baiyan chose to change his court from the beginning, the treatment he received would definitely not be too low.

It's just that he didn't, which led to the situation becoming the way it is now, Xu Shi gave orders at will, but he had to listen with squinting eyes, which was quite a taste of being called by the current people.

But that's the most excesses, okay?!

To be reasonable, in her opinion, Xu Shi's threat to Lu Baiyan will not play a role, after all, Lu Baiyan himself can say things like "Do you want to kill me to sacrifice the flag", what is there to be afraid of even death?

That is to say, even if the other party has a significant reduction in treatment, he still willingly agrees to ......?

This is too grassy, although I don't understand KFC's routines, but the red-haired big sister can still hear a little.

Choose to understand but not forgive, and this has already determined the high and low.

Showing him the report letter from his clan relatives is undoubtedly telling him, "Who can be so tolerant to you except me, even your family wants you to die." ”

Plus some work that should have been done before...... After this set of combination punches, Lu Baiyan can find the north is already very good, how can he not be obedient?

He even felt that it was his own problem, and said sorry there.

Qin Yiyan pursed his lips, he was indeed here to open his eyes at Xu Shi.

If it were her, she would actually disdain this kind of heart-attacking method, and it might be more in line with her style to go straight, and what she has will be seen under her hands...... All in all, she was actually a little disgusted by this kind of intrigue.

But.

She also had to admit that Xu Shi had the ability to be in her body - she completely won Lu Baiyan's heart in just a few words...... cough, this statement is a bit ambiguous, it should be said that it didn't take much effort to get Lu Baiyan's loyalty.

Rather than threatening someone to die, of course, it's better to make someone willing to die for you, isn't it?

If I'm not mistaken, this guy's ability seems to be related to this aspect, so did he use his ability on Lu Baiyan? It doesn't seem to be either.

Boy.

If you don't use the ability, it's still like this, but if you use the ability, can you pay it back?

The red-haired stupid girl didn't know the secrets about Dongfang Xiao and Miss Saintess, and she was a little scared when she thought about it.

However, she also didn't understand how Lu Baiyan could bow his head to this part.

This is the gap in thinking - Squinting itself has a yearning for the outside world, and most of the previous temptations were due to this reason, but she has faded a lot in this regard, and it is normal not to understand.

And then again, in fact, the attack on Lu Baiyan has been going on for a long time, and today Xu Shilai is just the end, and it looks naturally easier and easier.

It's just that this is not something that Qin Yiyan can digest for a while, but this is enough to shock her.

And she didn't notice the figure behind her.

"When are you going to overhear?"

Xu Shi poked her shoulder mischievously, "My little maid? ”
